Student Visa Program Vulnerable to ‘Potential Terrorists’
DHS cannot account for 48,642 foreign students

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) cannot account for nearly 50,000
foreign students taking advantage of a student work visa program, according
to a new report released by the Government Accountability Office (GAO) on
Friday.
The program is a threat to national security and vulnerable to potential
terrorists, said Sen. Chuck Grassley (R., Iowa), who asked the GAO to review
the program.
The Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP), administered by Immigration
and Customs Enforcement (ICE), allows individuals on student visas to
remain in the country to gain work experience in their chosen fields.
However, due to inadequate oversight at DHS, the government has no idea
whether 48,642 foreign students are working or not.
Thirty-eight percent of the 126,796 students currently approved for “
optional practical training” (OPT)—which allows them to stay in the
country up to two and a half years after completion of their studies—cannot
be accounted for because their records contain no employer name.
Grassley sent a letter to DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson on Wednesday asking for
an immediate moratorium on the program until its problems are resolved.
